VBAT

VBAT had a challenging 2007 following six years of growth and prosperity due to significant client cutbacks. However, buoyed by its strong creative product and entrepreneurial spirit as well as 19 new client wins and the introduction of a new integrated retail offer via the acquisition of MPG Retail, the company was in recovery by Q4 and optimistic about future growth and development. Significant 2007 wins included NS (the Dutch railways), de Bijenkorf (a high-end shopping center) and KNVB (the Dutch football association). Heineken, Wessanen and ING remained VBAT's top clients.
